Its very true but when was the last time you saw a cyclist given a FPN the law states every pedal cycle used on the highway should have a bell or some form of warning very few do and thats whats wrong. I would like to see the Police getting tough with cyclists and handing out a few FPN's cyclists flaunt the law because they know that nothing will be done about it and its wrong.
Did any of the regular posters on here watch it ??
I am surprised that there has not been a postings on the carnival. I missed it last year but thought this years carnival was great thoroughly enjoyed the parade well done to all who organised it.
The link Dawlish/Teighnmouth is on hold as funding has been withdrawn and i would hope will never be completed.
Come with me up to the Lakes and i will show you muddy paths and not just a bit here and there miles of your feet in mud and water.
Well i have just completed the Wainwrights, i am half way through the Pennine Way, and the Pemprokeshire Coast Path and i am up to my ankles in mud on a regular basis and thats what i expect when walking, if you want dry feet keep to the roads.
Footpaths are the same all over the country i walk The Dales, Lake District, South West Coast path ,,Pembrokeshire Coast Path, The Lake District, and the Scotish Highlands and i am often up to my ankles in mud it's what real walkers expect.
Well thats not the reason both are the responsibility of Devon County Council.
It gets better just been up to Ashcombe and followed a lycra clad cyclist through the lanes no hands on his handle bars plus he was talking on his mobile gave him a peep when aproaching a passing place and all i got was two fingers and cyclists wonder why drivers dislike them.
So why did i see 8 cyclists riding towards town down Exeter Road on the footpath opposite the cycle path this morning and i see that on a daily basis. Secondly i followed the so called preparing for road races brigade three abreast from Sainsburys to Cockwood i was in a line of over 20 cars more tolerant i think not.
